TPS62090EVM-063 Evaluation Module
This user’s guide describes the TPS62090 evaluation module (EVM) and how to perform a stand-alone
evaluation or interface with a host or system. The TPS62090 is a step-down converter that operates with
an input voltage between 2.5 V and 6 Vdc, an output voltage of 1.8 V using external resistors, and can
deliver up to 3000 mA of continuous current. The converter has a programmable soft-start, a power-out
good status, and several other safety features. See the data sheet for the complete description.
